After scoring one of the most unanimously critically acclaimed film scores of recent history Uncut Gems in 2019, the New York artist and producer Daniel Lopatin – whose name has become synonymous with era-defining art – is back with his new album Magic Oneohtrix Point Never – a nostalgic reference to radio landscapes – and making the most enlightened music of his career.
OPN categorically challenges most standard notions of linear thinking in music, constantly shifting within traditional paradigms, unwinding and reweaving digital sensory triggers into contemporary sonatas.
mOPN is another thrilling, boundary pushing record of electronic compositions from this multifaceted artist. It amalgamates his rich history of production work, his chamber pop song writing of his previous albums and his earlier explorations of plunderphonics, into a record that is as much of a reference to the artist's past, as Lopatin dialling inwards into his sonic world of OPN, creating a parallel universe for the listener to exist in, during these tumultuous times.
